Today’s Blessing Prayer: Friday greetings and blessings to all and welcome to the last day of November! I hope your Friday is starting off well? It is a cloudy day here in the New York area and they say rain is on the way for later today and tomorrow. Not such a nice way to end November and begin December. I guess it is up to us to bring a little sunshine to the day!
My prayer of blessing today is that God will be with us as we enter this new day. May God bless all our endeavors today, all our meetings and encounters with others, all our projects, work and responsibilities today. May God bless our travels and our quiet time. May God bless us and all whom we love with a day filled with his grace, hope, joy, love and peace. May God also bless us with a faith-filled journey through this day and always! Have a great Friday friends. Peace in Christ's Passion...Fr. Paul

Today’s Prayer: O God, you keep us waiting for the right time in which to discover who we are, where we must go, who will be with us, and what we must do. And in all of this, you keep us. Through hard questions with no easy answers; through failing where we hoped to succeed and making an impact when we felt we were useless; through the patience and the dreams and the love of others, you keep us. Thank you for the keeping time, now and forever. Amen. (A Prayer from the Iona Community Worship Book)
Today’s Blessing Prayer: Thursday greetings and blessings to all. I hope your Thursday is starting off well. It is to be cold and windy here in the New York area again today, but we might see a little more sun than yesterday. I hope you are navigating well through your weather today!
My prayer of blessing today comes from a post that I saw on Facebook yesterday… Deep peace of the Running Wave to you. Deep peace of the Flowing Air to you. Deep peace of the Quiet Earth to you. Deep peace of the Shining Stars to you. Deep peace of the Son of Peace to you. Sometimes we must marinate in truth a while in order to recognize the presence of Jesus. He never leaves us. He doesn’t forsake us. He is always there. Have a great Thursday everyone! Enjoy the presence of God today. Enjoy life. And keep eternity in mind. Peace in Christ's Passion...Fr. Paul Today’s Prayer: Lord, we call upon our entire lives, the great moments and the low moments, to give praise to you: dew and rain, frost and chill, nights and days, light and darkness. Let all bless the Lord, praise and exalt him above all forever. Increase our faith so that we may never lose sight of the blessedness that will be ours when we are called to the wedding feast of the Lamb. Amen! (Adapted from a prayer by Fr. Carroll Stuhlmueller, C.P.)

May there be peace within you. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us. Today - Amen! Loving God bless my family, friends and all in need today with this prayer! Have a great Wednesday everyone! Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul Today’s Prayer: Lord, we call upon the universe to give praise and glory to you, the sun and moon, stars of heaven, shower and dew, all the winds, fire and heat – all these have participated in our lives, accompanied us over and through many troubles and persecutions. Altogether we praise you, O Lord. We acclaim you for your kindness and faithfulness. You make your salvation known in the sight of everyone. Amen! (Adapted from a prayer by Fr. Carroll Stuhmueller, C.P.)
Today’s Blessing Prayer: Tuesday greetings and blessing to all! I hope your day has started off well. It was certainly a rainy afternoon and evening yesterday but no rain in sight this morning just what appears to be a cold beginning to the day. I hope your day weather wise is a bit better!
My prayer of blessing today for all of us is a simple one…May God look with favor upon all our prayers, needs, petitions and activities today. May God be with us in the day’s trials. May we always have the compassion, support, consolation, peace and love of God in our lives. May God bless us with his presence this day and always. Have a great Tuesday everyone! Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul Today’s Prayer:
Take, Lord, receive all our liberty, our memory, understanding, our entire will. Give us only your love and your grace, that's enough for us. Your love and your grace are enough for us. Take, Lord, receive all that we have and possess. You have given all to us, now we return it. Give us only your love and your grace, that's enough for us. Your love and your grace are enough for us. Take, Lord, receive, all is yours now. Dispose of it, wholly according to your will. Give us only your love and your grace, that's enough for us. Your love and your grace are enough for use. Amen. (Prayer adapted from prayer by St. Ignatius Loyola and the lyrics of Fr. John Foley’s song) Today’s Blessing Prayer: Monday greetings and blessings to all! I hope your day has started off well! If not just remember this too shall pass. It is an early morning for me as I say good-bye to Fairfax, VA and begin my journey north to Pelham in a few moments. I am hoping that by getting an early start I can beat the traffic out of Washington and get back by noon.
A special shout out to my niece Sarah who celebrates her birthday today! Happy Birthday, Sarah and many blessings today and always. Have a great day! My prayer of blessing today comes from something I ran across a few years ago, it is a blessing prayer that seems to be credited to both St. Thérèse of Liseaux and St. Teresa of Ávila. So, I thank them both for their words of wisdom that I use today… Loving God I prayer for family and friends today, for all who ask me to pray for them or to remember a prayer request that they have and I pray for all who are in need of prayer today.
